The correct answer is D. Autonomous Threat Prevention simplifies threat-prevention administration by using predefined profiles and automated updates to keep protections aligned with Check Point’s recommended security posture. The administrator selects a profile that matches the protected segment, such as perimeter, cloud/data center, internal network, or guest network, rather than manually tuning every protection from scratch. Option A is false because Autonomous Threat Prevention does not block all HTTPS traffic by default. Option B is technically absurd; Check Point does not replace SSL/TLS with a proprietary protocol. Option C is wrong because traffic acceleration is associated with performance technologies such as SecureXL, not Autonomous Threat Prevention. The primary advantage is operational simplification with strong protection coverage: it reduces configuration complexity, speeds deployment, and helps keep protections current as threat intelligence changes.
